About This Tire
The Riken Raptor VR 235/55R18 is a V-speed rated all-season tire designed for sedan, coupe, minivan, and crossover drivers who prioritize balanced handling performance and year-round versatility in everyday driving. Its symmetric tread design and all-season compound focus on maintaining consistent road contact and reliable traction across dry, wet, and light snow conditions.
The tire features a continuous center rib that provides constant rubber-to-road contact for solid steering response and on-center feel. Four wide circumferential grooves work with multiple lateral notches to channel water away from the contact patch and resist hydroplaning, while in-block sipes create biting edges for enhanced all-season grip. Driver feedback points to strong dry handling capabilities and good wet weather performance, with comfortable ride quality and reliable treadwear characteristics in regular use.
Compared to performance-oriented tires, it emphasizes comfort, stability, and long-term usability while maintaining sport-touring responsiveness. Overall, it's a solid choice for daily drivers of family vehicles used primarily for commuting and highway travel in varied weather conditions.
